Episode 13: Episode 13 - Absolutely Delusional: 5 Years of Slamming Bricks

  • Summary

  • On September 9th, 2023, the fifth iteration of Slamming Bricks - the largest queer-focused invitational poetry slam competition in the Four Corners region - took place at the Avalon Theater in Grand Junction, Colorado. In this episode, Caleb Ferganchick, the founder and organizer of Slamming Bricks, looks back at 5 years of hard work to tell the colorful story of how the event came to exist, how intersectionality played a key role in helping it grow (from 100 attendees to over 500), and how being "absolutely delusional" is sometimes necessary when you're chasing a big dream.  Featuring slam poetry performances by Pepper Ruzin, Briana Hammerstrom, Adrienne Cascarella, and Caleb Ferganchick.  Note: This episode contains recordings of poetry performances that use curse words in the context of artistic expression.
